Preliminary results have been obtained from both evaluations.
Further work is required to evaluate the Narrative Builder through
qualitative and quantitative analysis using several users. In the
2014 - 2015 academic year, it is intended to continue to provide
learners with personalized visual narratives and compare
engagement results with control groups, and quantify the increase
in engagement levels, and verify the statistical significance.
